As there are many comments about the beading on these windows and doors I’d just like to clear something up. These are aluminium doors and windows NOT uPVC. The beading system is different. On uPVC all beads are snapped in internally and that’s the job done. On aluminium the bead is snapped in either internally OR externally and the glass still feels fairly loose. After those beads have been fitted there is a rubber gasket that is pushed in around the perimeter of the glass on the INSIDE that makes the beads impossible to remove from either side unless you first remove that gasket.
Spot on.
Thanks James 👍
@@kc8563 then why put the bead on the outside? If it rains you can reglaze it from the inside and keep dry🤔
Not read all the armchair experts comments but I’ll add It’s a poxy job to do imo - done a few and wouldn’t do any more ally windows/doors.
So Even on the fixtures that your fitting the beads outside your wedging up inside? Also little tip. Spray a little water or glass cleaner around the glass where you wedging up, acts as a lubricant
Nice skill with the impact driver. Using power tools properly is a trade all in itself. James is a true craftsman! Most tradesman don't care for such minor details that go a long way.
Let the external bead police 👮🏼♂️ commence 🤣🤣🤣
That job looked like a Mission! Nice to see you taking the time and care to get it right. It’s not all about being the fastest.
Get some of those Wurth airbags for jacking the frames. Can pump with your feet leaving hands free
Are they wurth it 🤣🤣
Thanks for posting, valuable content watching you guys working and reading through the comments too. Thanks for taking time and effort to get film onto UA-cam ...
Nice job lads 👍... I normally create /allow for 15mm add on to sides and head of the frame ... coz its only around 35mm thickness a decent margin on frame is still left after a plastered reveal and or render externally.....🙏
Foolish perhaps but I actually expected a video titled "How to install...." would explain how to do it, the trap, tricks and pitfalls not too experienced guys just getting on with doing it.
That is fair comment and needs to be addressed. We are trying to expand the channel with another cameraman because Roger is away filming some other projects. Next time we will try and voice over the footage to give you more information.
@@SkillBuilder nice
Can please everyone. Good to just watch and different process of assembly and install from my part of the world
It wasn't titled "how to"
Not bi-fold doors! Nice to see an ordinary door being put in for a change.
That door took some doing, not had the pleasure myself. I always paid a company to do it.
Quietest I've seen you work so far 😂😂
'Wheres James?'.......under a bucket 🤣🤣👍
Fair play lads, nice to see the regular uploads. Should definitely have a skill off with you guys for each trade. You all seem to be pretty well rounded. 👍
My first on site project had its tender return date this week just gone. Once the decision has been made I have a 2 week mobilisation period before works commence. It's been my primary job now for the past 8ish months and I can't wait to see the works begin. All to provide accommodation for a severely disabled lad and his career parents, not a bad first job!
What doest that even mean? 8months and you haven't started?
Beautiful 👍🏽……. Where one door closes another will surely open 🚪
Tip 1 the manufactures put the beads in without glass ,with glass in beads may be to tight theres no harm in filing the bead down slighty makes a world of difference.
Tip 2 Toe and heel the glass so it squares the sash up and prevents binding or rubbing of the stays etc, using a wooden or plastic paddle.
Tip 3 spray the area lightly with some soapy water when rollering the rubber gasket in , it will go in alot easier.
Bead note , unless the burglar can get inside to take the rubber out ,that bead isn't shifting, its locked in with compression , internal/ external doesn't matter unless your replacing the glass in the rain lol
I wondered about the cavity closers too. See you guys have had problems getting hold of them which makes sense. The door was a nice fit into the opening. Site I'm on the windows and doors are being fitted with a 40mm gap in some places and foamed to death. Really bad.
U should put silicone between cill and frame and the cill should be blocked both side with silicone 👋🏼
Stakker is FIRST!!
Another quality job by Stakker.
You know it makes sense.
Have recently done my first DIY door and window instal for my garden gym so was nice to watch this. Two things would’ve been great to cover in a little more detail : (1) I fixed my cill to the threshold first and then dropped the frame on. I noticed you guys fixed the cill to frame first then dropped the whole thing onto the threshold. Is one way better than the other or is it just down to personal preference? And then definitely would’ve liked a bit more time and explanation of toe and heeling. I found that the most difficult bit of my instal.
Yes you are right we could have done better with this one. Try this for the toe and heel, it is tricky

Beautiful
Thanks for the video 👏
💞💞💞💞👍
We could do with a bit more chat about what's going on. Eg what was the sealant used round the frame on the outside?
I’d love to know why you didn’t fit the door in between the two walls leafs ! Rather than pretty much flush to the outer leaf?
We fitted in that position to match all of the windows and doors on the existing house.
Great job Lads
Corded drill? Is that allowed in the guild of UA-camrs? 😁
Lovely tight fit
Any chance you could do a review and tell us pro and con in your view vs uPVC. Also interested what you did for cavity closers.
Where’s the cavity closers? Will be a pain to slot them behind the frame now it’s foamed in. And the blockwork on the inside needs taking out so the insulation and screed can go to the door sill👍👍
The cavity closers went in easily. The blockwork will be chopped. This was a window until the customer decided they wanted French windows
Video clip at 8:18 onwards showing of installing window from outside, wouldn’t that give the burglar a better chance of removing the window instead from the inside, when it should be installed from inside of the house.
Im 100% sure that’s what the double glaze fitters do installing windows from the inside.
Hi, Great video, do you ever fit the sill, level, then drop the frames on?
James where did you get the tool with the wheel on the end to put the rubber in for the glass?
Hi Peter, it’s from the wholesale glass company in croydon, you can also order online with them.
Thanks for James. I'm in the double glazing trade and I can't stand rubbering up Ali but watching you use that wheel I might change my mind 😂 I'll take a look at that thanks again
Externally beaded windows I don’t think so too easy to break into didn’t think they even made them any more
Burglars delight at one time that's why I thought they went internal.
These are aluminium windows sashes beaded internally, fixed beaded externally but both have a secondary rubber gasket fitted internally which makes it impossible to remove the glass from the outside.
All aluminium windows are externally beaded .
The beading is security beading and the gasket is so tight that the only way you'll remove the beading is by cutting it out. Harder to break through than internally beaded uPVC windows.
I was just thinking that same thing 😱😱🤔
Hopefully the Boys will Enlighten us on WHY Or Were they in the Reduced Isle of Travis perkins 😜
Am from india, my name is basil.For the last 6 years, I have been working on aluminum doors and windows.,, now i in uk.., if there is any workers veccancie in uk please mention
How old is this video or have I missed something external beading and no toe and heel on the doors?
It's just my personal preference but I so prefer reveals on the outside. It does mean more thought on the design side, but when houses have doors/windows set back behind the outer skin, the appearance is much prettier.
8:48 cracking job that
and that's why our doors and windows suck. got some triple glazed windows from velfac turning up on site next week I'm glad they are fitting them. great as always shame about the montage.
not exactly a "how to" more of a watch it happen !
That looked a right ball ache - push in gaskets - external beads!!!!
That’s aluminium windows for you!
Didn’t even show putting the external bars on the glass. Hardly a complete job is it?
Another interesting video but personally I think those windows are ugly. All framework and relatively little glazing. And then to put in a frame to mimic a Georgian effect, especially when there's a nice view.
Why not now put up those awful Plantation blinds! Still the customer is always right and it's their choice.
What is the silicone gun please.
just wondered why you didnt fit the cavity closers first , would have been alot easier
None available at the time. 2021 the year of all building material shortages.
Music at the end please
Please don’t ever show another window or door install. The bloody bead police in the comments smfh. They look the dogs btw👍
Where's the cavity closers.. How you going to fit them correctly now?
The cavity closers got fitted no problem. We were trying to get hold of them for a few weeks, but nothing was available. Possible shortage. But all we did was undo the straps and they went in okay 👍.
Do you need a 30mm overlap over cavity closer? Or are reveals being insulated?
Thermal board, cavity closers tucked in nicely
@@SkillBuilder amazed you found any!
@@Swwils it wasn’t easy, but we eventually got some.
Where is your cavity closers ???
on their way to the merchants. Everything is out of stock right now, it ain't easy.
@@SkillBuilder that’s fair enough but you are going to struggle to get the cavity closers in now the doors are fitted
So why two window openings on these doors ? Big mistake because they never get opened !
Where Charlie Chaplin ? Thought it was a silent movie !
Should have been factory sealed makes life easy.
Why aluminium and not upvc?
Why uPVC not aluminium?
Should have put cavity closers in first boys
They weren’t available at the time, lots of shortages at the moment.
🤙🏽🤙🏽
Can,t believe they have external beading
Cavity closures?
Out of stock, nobody had any. They went in with no problem
I like the little roller for the gasket. Where did you buy that?
It was from a place call ‘The wholesale glass company’ you can find them online. It’s a great tool and fairly cheap too.
I could of done with one of those - looks handy doesn’t it
The concern of installing windows and door on the outer leaf of the wall is cold bridging around the frame, in the long term it may cause condensation around the frame and lead to mould. I would have move the frame inward just a bit to lower the risk.
It will cold bridge wherever it is through the frame.
Very nice 👍 aren't the snap in window trims supposed to be on the inside though like the door so you can't take the glass out from the outside?
Once the gasket is in there is no way those trims are coming out without a real fight. Breaking the glass would be easier and quieter.
@@SkillBuilder ah yes that makes sense 👍
Why do builders put damp courses under Ali or plastic windows ? What damp is going to rise up through Ali or plastic ? It makes me laugh how the put damp courses in but don’t know why 🤣
The dpc is continous and there is no point in cutting it. Often we put in another wide piece and lap it up the back of the frame. This was a cut down window opening
Cavity closers 🤔
None available, shortages on everything at the moment.
Wot! No cavity closers?
They were out of stock in 4 different merchants so they were fitted afterwards.
@@SkillBuilder I feel your pain! It’s a bloody bloody nightmare.
👍
Woof
Not really a 'how to' video without any commentary or explanation of what is being done, why / why not use certain techniques etc.
I much prefer Rogers commentary, doesn’t seem the same without his dulcet tones. Didn’t look to be a very good install either? Not one of your better videos IMHO.
Had you 3 fell out this week ? 🤔, you were all very quiet 😆.
Those gaskets looked a right faff 🤨🧱👍🏽
We had a trainee cameraman on this one. He doesn't know about the building industry so he didn't know what to ask.
It is really difficult to find the right combination of skills
@@SkillBuilder Ah 👌🏼. 😉🧱👍🏽
It was the shock of having Ian back and putting us all to shame. Those gaskets are a faff but you will never get that glass out unless you can remove it.
They are tight. Am surprised James didn't soak the gasket in warm soapy water first to help pushing them in.
The right combinations of skills....your not kidding there.😁👍👍
Outsid glazing bars cheap
not as cheap as a 'e'. An is freeeeeeee
@@SkillBuilder 😂😂
What, the windows are beaded from the outside, lol OK.
They’re aluminium windows. Sashes beaded inside, fixed beaded outside but both require a rubber gasket after fitting which is all on the inside so you will never be able to remove the glass without first removing the internal gasket.
I was literally just going to say that 😂😂😂 not cheap either id bet
I could pop those trims out easily. All I need is my hammer and my mate
Now then weres James😁👍👍.
